Parking garage in Lower Manhattan collapses, 1 confirmed dead

A parking garage at 57 Ann Street in lower Manhattan collapsed this afternoon killing one person and injuring 5 . The building is almost 100 years old having been built in 1925/ The certificate of occupancy stated that only 5 cars were to be parked on each floor Video from local new stations in New York show more vehicles

FDNY units are on the scene doing remote searches for further victims as building is too unstable to enter

I wonder how many cars were parked on each floor. I bet a lot of people in that neighborhood, living in similar structures are pretty nervous now.

Oh My Gosh, now neither garages nor houses are safe((

The facility there is too old and the security is not good. I think everyone should move somewhere else.
getting over it
